It has fundamental importance in Islām. The companions of The last Prophet used to say by name, "Did we see the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) doing this?" Sometimes they used to say that we used to do this during the time of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and sometimes it happened that the companions' religious deeds were considered a sign of the teachings of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). When the knowledge of Ḥadīth &nbsp;became embedded in books and writings, it did not require hard work in memorizing it orally and copying it, which was very important from a religious and scholarly point of view before the formal editing of this knowledge. But this does not mean that the principle of oral transmission and tradition does not remain, but it is a fact. It continued to be transmitted to the living disciples, but this natural rotation of circumstances and the principled convenience of the writings of Ḥadīth &nbsp;left only oral memory behind, collections of Ḥadīth s were prepared, guidance was obtained from the Ḥadīth &nbsp;after the Qur'an. If there was room for doubt, the companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) would have been consulted. Despite this, mu'tarzin left no stone unturned to prove to you the disbelievers.</p> 2024-09-06T00:59:26+05:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Islamic Studies Research Journal Abḥāth https://ojs.lgu.edu.pk/index.php/abhath/article/view/2228 برصغیر میں مطالعہ مسیحیت کی روایت کا آغاز وارتقاء 2024-09-12T08:32:21+05:00 Muhammad Mustafa Iqbal mmiqbal10@hotmail.com Muhammad Hamid Raza imamzai@gmail.com <p>Before understanding the advent and spread of Christianity in India, it is necessary to understand what religion are Christianity.What are its basic ideas? Therefore, first of all, the basic ideas and history of Christianity will be presented briefly, because the correct way to understand a religion is to understand it directly from the people of the religion, so it will be an attempt not to attribute anything to Christianity without reference to Christian scholars themselves, and since the purpose of this is only to understand Christianity, No theory of religion will be commented upon, but only information related to its basic ideas and history will be discussed, and studying Christianity by Muslims in the subcontinent, it is important to know how Christianity reached the subcontinent and then how it established its foothold in this area and how it achieved so much progress here. In the beginning of the year, Alexandria was the largest trading city in the world, Indian merchants who went to Alexandria to trade silk and pearls, and on their return brought with them a collection of books of Mustan to India. In the early 2nd century, some Indian merchants wrote a letter to Bishop Demetry Youss of Alexandria, asking him to send a capable man to India for the tabalgar mastay, so he sent the Pontius priest, who was one of the most capable people of his time; to India and that he was the "first missionary" in India. How the British spent their energies in the spread of Christianity in the subcontinent and adopted every means that could promote Christianity, from the army of priests and missionaries to the misuse of government power and from books to magazines and newspapers and from public preaching to debate, they adopted every method by which Christianity could be spread. But Muslim scholars also continued to observe this whole situation closely and they not only closed the siege in front of the growing storm of Christianity on every front in defense of Islam, but also reined in this vicious ness and held it in such a way that they did not give it a chance to rise again.</p> 2024-09-12T06:50:54+05:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Islamic Studies Research Journal Abḥāth https://ojs.lgu.edu.pk/index.php/abhath/article/view/2184 منتخب کتب تصوف کی روشنی میں صوفیاء کے عقیدہ توحید اور اصول عقائد کا تحقیقی جائزہ 2024-09-16T09:28:59+05:00 Muhammad Naveed muhammad.naveed@uettaxila.edu.pk Prof Dr. Muhammad Baqir Khan Khakwani qasimsajid@yahoo.com <p>This research article explores the central role of the doctrine of Faith of monotheism and its principles as presented in selected Sufi texts. The study demonstrates that the beliefs of the Sufis, particularly <strong>Tawhid</strong> and its principles, are derived from the <strong>Qur'an</strong> and <strong>Sunnah</strong>, with no elements conflicting with Islamic teachings. These texts make a concerted effort to align Sufi teachings with traditional Islamic beliefs. The article concludes that Sufi doctrines are fully consistent with Islamic teachings, deeply rooted in the Qur'an and Sunnah. Various aspects of Tawhid are clarified in these texts, and the study argues against the notion that Sufi beliefs are un-Islamic. Ultimately, these works validate Sufi beliefs as authentic and in harmony with Islamic teachings.</p> 2024-09-16T00:00:00+05:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Islamic Studies Research Journal Abḥāth https://ojs.lgu.edu.pk/index.php/abhath/article/view/2223 سرصناعة الاستعارة التصريحية، وأغراضها البلاغية في القرآن الكريم 2024-08-09T05:26:01+05:00 Samina Begum saminaphd@sbbwu.edu.pk Habib Nawaz Khan drhabibnawaz@gmail.com <p>The Qur'ān is Islam's revealed literature consisting of Allah's commandments. This is the matchless and unchallengeable book of almighty Allah. The great eloquent&nbsp; Arabs failed to show this book or one verse with identical literature in terms of the eloquence of this revealed book. This article deals with figures of beautification of the Quran known as metaphors. There are three kinds of metaphors in Arabic rhetoric that are used in the holy Qur'ān namely: Tasrihia, Makniah and Tamthilaih, but the scholar intends to write from only Tasrihiah Metaphor searching in those verses of the holy Qur'ān that dealer it with explained examples,&nbsp; and in the light of the authentic book of Islamic scholars.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> 2024-08-09T05:13:09+05:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Islamic Studies Research Journal Abḥāth
